I vented about this in other areas but figured this would be a good question here. What TV / streaming service do you use to watch the Astros? I was with Comcast in 2021 but they raised my TV service uo to $150/m just for TV. So I went to FUBO. Was great until the playoffs as FUBO doesn't get TBS. Then there was three regular season games shown exclusively on Apple TV which pissed me off. You can't watch local games with an MLB.TV subscription. It seems we are being forced to watch on Comcast.
